Getting
the Universe to Work for You |
by:

Wouldn't
it be great to know that you have something
as enormous as the Universe working in your
favor? To know that such a force was pushing
for your success would mean that success
was only a matter of WHEN, not IF.
The good news is that this support is easy
to access by doing one simple yet very important
thing - giving before you receive.
You may have heard this expression before,
especially with parents convincing their
child to share with their friends or siblings.
By giving before you receive, success will
be drawn to you and your business.
How does it work?
The act of giving something without expecting
anything in return sends to the Universe
a message. This message says "I am prepared
to help others regardless of whether I receive
any material benefits for my work". The
Universe hears this message and responds
in kind by rewarding you many times for
your efforts (and never how you expect).
This concept might seem far-fetched, but
there are already thousands of businesses
that employ this principle everyday. I can
almost guarantee that you have been at the
receiving end of it in the last six to twelve
months. This principle can be seen when
a business gives away a free report, ebook,
a free consultation or teleseminar. It is
the act of giving something of value away
to your customer for NOTHING, in the hope
that they will benefit from what you are
offering them.
When you give something away, the recipient
feels a sub-conscious desire to give something
back in return. It is unavoidable - all
humans feel the same, even if they don't
know it. This rule is known as the Rule
of Reciprocation. But in order for this
rule to be effective, the recipient must
feel that the gift was given in the right
spirit - the Spirit of Giving.
Here is an example. You have a report that
can help others loose weight. This report
has taken you four months to research, prepare
and edit it, getting it into a format that
others can download and print. You decide
that due to the large number of overweight
people in society, you will give this information
away for free. Obviously, you would like
people to read it and return to buy weight
loss products or a series of weight loss
reports that you intend on writing. However,
even if they didn't return you would still
offer this report for free because you feel
strongly about helping others lose weight.
This is the Spirit of Giving.
If your customer feels this Spirit when
receiving a gift from you, they will want
to return the favor and give something back,
such as their email address, an order or
a referral to their family and friends.
By giving away something of value to help
others, the Universe will work very hard
to help you. Not only will the Rule of Reciprocation
bring you rewards, but other opportunities
will come your way, such as large orders
in the future, joint venture opportunities
with others, and positive word-of-mouth
exposure for your business.
If you have a website, then offer something
of value to your visitors. This might be
a report, ebook, or a voucher that can be
redeemed for product at a later date. If
you have an off-line business, then perhaps
provide an information booklet, a free initial
consultation or giveaway with a purchase.
The act of giving before you receive will
not only bring you countless benefits, but
will enable hundreds and eventually thousands
of people to benefit from the valuable gift
that you have provided them. Your business
will grow, and even more people will benefit
from your actions.
I assure you, the Universe rewards such
efforts.
